Tim Scott. During an emotional news conference announcing her appointment, McMaster said &#8220;Lindsey took care of his little sister in years long departed,&#8221; calling it an &#8220;honor to ask his little sister Darline Graham to finish his work for him now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Darline Graham, 62, called it &#8220;such a privilege to get to finish some of his important work,&#8221; while pledging to &#8220;work hard over the next several months to support the president and carry forward the efforts of my brother on behalf of the citizens of South Carolina and the United States.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Lindsey has always been there for me,&#8221; she said. &#8220;And now I will be there for him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The late senator&#8217;s term ends in early January, when a new Congress will be sworn in. Because the four-term senator had been seeking reelection, South Carolina will hold a special primary election on Aug. 11 to select a Republican to replace him on the ballot.<\/p>\n<p>Darline Graham, who has had a career in disabilities services and most recently served as commissioner of the South Carolina Commission for the Blind, doesn&#8217;t have a background in elected office. But she said Monday that with the support of her brother&#8217;s staff, she feels confident in her ability to carry out the role. Whether she runs for a six-year term or opts to serve simply as a caretaker for the seat for the coming months remains to be seen.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think this is what Lindsey would have wanted,&#8221; she said. &#8220;And I plan to honor him in this way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation  \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"component__item-recirc-block\">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">Go deeper with The Free Press<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n      <!-- tags --><br \/>\n    <\/section>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/darline-graham-sworn-in-senate-lindsey-graham-sister\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington \u2014 Darline Graham, the sister of the late Sen.
